How to Improve Upon Google’s Four Golden Signals of Monitoring
- karmakaze 5y agoNot a long post but not anything surprising: Lists the Four Golden Signals (types of data when monitoring and observing) Latency, or the time it takes for each transaction to complete. Traffic, which represents the overall load placed on the system. Errors, or the number of requests that result in a failure. Saturation, meaning how many resources your system is consuming relative to the total resources available. > need to collect many more than just four total signals Yes, they're categories not actual metrics > troubleshooting outliers Yes, a p99 can still belong to a category of signal > Business metrics No, an SRE's job is not to report/meet KPIs (other than reliability).
